6.5/06 Help required for choice
      10/09/05 12:00 AM

I do not have much knowledge of this cartridge and have been offered a very good deal on the following rifle.

I have a 6.5 X 55 Swede as a hunting rig and a 6.5 X 284 in a heavy varmint BR rig. How does or would it compare to the other two cartridges.

The rifle is a 6.5-06 built on an Enfield P17 action, Timney trigger tuned to be 1.5 lbs pull, converted to cock on opening with a speedlock (will push feed as well as from the mag), Boyds laminate thumbhole varminter stock, 26" Bevan King match barrel with a 8.5 twist, Muzzle brake installed properly and true, one piece weaver base shimmed for more elevation.

Any comment or observations would be appreciated. Thank you
